5. Campaign Development Pillars!
Focus on Veterans - We have designed each campaign to be
accessible and attractive to our unique community. !
!
Build Community - Weʼve integrated traditional organizing methods
so that 1) we reach the specific audiences we need to reach our
deployment goals 2) outreach is not just limited to one instance of
communication but rather sustained by a strong community of
supporters and 3) creates meaningful change. !
!
Create meaningful bridges to benefits - Our most important goal
is to help veterans use the web to access the services + benefits
they need and deserve. All of our campaigns are designed to be a
bridge to those benefits. !
!
6. Weʼve identified three audience categories critical to success:!
1. Veterans + Family Members ! 3. Advocates !
